Often, cloud risks fly under the radar because organizations don’t know they have sensitive data lurking in their environment. This creates a treasure trove for attackers, particularly when it comes to high-value AI training data. In this talk, we’ll discuss how sensitive data discovery and content understanding can help reduce security and privacy risks, safeguard AI development and deployment, and drive business momentum – especially in analytics and AI.

As a cloud security professional, you are responsible for protecting your valuable cloud data. This technical session demonstrates how Security Command Center can help you automatically discover your cloud data assets, pinpoint which datasets may be at risk, define and implement the right posture controls to protect data and manage access, and provide your team with real-time alerting of data security violations. Get ready to prevent breaches, reduce insider risk, and meet compliance requirements.

Learn how Chrome Enterprise Premium can help you stay ahead of the curve in today’s ever-evolving threat landscape. In this session, we’ll dive deep into new browser-based capabilities, such as proactive data loss prevention with advanced data masking, enhanced employee phishing protection, and scaled threat prevention with Google Threat Intelligence.

Even if your cloud infrastructure is configured securely, how can you make sure cloud applications do not introduce vulnerabilities? This technical session for cloud security professionals focuses on shift-left security practices, including the latest strategies for building secure applications, achieving code-to-cloud traceability of code-related issues, and getting AI-generated remediations that make it easy for application development teams to fix issues at the source.

Google Threat Intelligence’s Capture the Flag game uses real-world data, including Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) advisories, ransom notes, and information from the dark web, to simulate a threat hunt. Test your cybersecurity skills by navigating clues, analyzing evidence, and solving puzzles to capture the flags with Google Threat Intelligence.

Test your incident response skills in the Security Tabletop Workshop, an exercise that simulates a realistic cyberattack to assess and improve an organization’s security posture. Tabletop exercises are a critical component of any cybersecurity strategy, helping your team reduce the impact of cyberattacks, evaluate response strategies, address gaps, foster collaboration, and clarify roles during a crisis.
